NW Ohio gunshow grabs.

Post by ohio hunter »

Here in NW Oh there are not many leverguns or shooters of them. I am always on the lookout at gunshows for them. This last month they seem to be comming out of the cracks! I picked up an 1893 (1895 shipped) Marlin in 38-55 at last show in Lima. Yesterday a small show in Montpelier netted an older very nice Marlin in 35 Rem,(yee ha wanted one for a while), a modern Marlin almost new in 45-70 (with ugly see thru mounts and simmons scope) and an Oliver Winchester commenerative in 38-55 at a good price. I am not much for plated engraved firarms but price was right. There nwas a 99 in .303? , a 444 Marlin and a few high $$ old Winny's in 218 bee and other desirable calibers. I nabbed an RCBS sizer for $50 with a .357 die and 429 TP. I wont mention the M1A here on Leverguns :) Danged if"n I aint gun poor again! :D

J, The method is exactly the same as the old forum. Come on, we need some drool fuel :lol:
"People who object to weapons aren't abolishing violence, they're begging for rule by brute force, when the biggest, strongest animals among men were always automatically 'right.' Guns ended that, and social democracy is a hollow farce without an armed populace to make it work."

I was going to go to the show in Medina, OH on Sat. I pulled in the parking lot, saw the crowd and bolted!

Would have loved to had a table set up in there though.

My grandfather used to go to the Montpielier show all the time. I haven't been there in years.

Willing to bet all those great leverguns he left me came out of that show!
